Why does chili explode in the microwave

Everytime I heat chili up in the microwave it explodes and the beans go a flyin.

Fo Sho?

 

You have to put a napkin over it.

 

Same reason it explodes in the toilet.

 

Its to thick for the heat bubbles to escape thus they build up and release all at once creating a miniature chili explosion. Dont be lazy, heat that shit up in a pot.

 

In a pot? I never would have fathomed.

 

It aint chili if it has beans in it dude. But yea just put a paper towel over it. Or they do sell little covers for that.

 

I don't know about rice, I'd go with chili cheese nachos.

 

I once put a CD in the microwave.

 

fuckin' lol.

 

I disagree. Chili's containing beans are the best.

 

Im a modern day prophet bro.

 

This guys owes everyone a single internet.

I never have trouble microwaving chili, though.

But it's better if you heat it in a pot, which has been mentioned.

 

Damn. Now I'm hungry.

 

I use one of these. I love it.

 

This. It stays in my microwave and gets used everytime. Never have to clean my microwave again.

 

same

damit now i gotta find a place open that sells chili cheese nachos this late

 

Water turns to steam inside the beans which then exploded like legume balloons. IIRC this is the same process that make popcorn go pop.

 

One time I put some left over chili on my scrambled eggs. Best decision ever

 

My cousin told me about a time he was trying to use up eggs that he had in the fridge, so he put eggs on EVERYTHING. Burgers, chili, spaghetti, enchiladas, everything. His findings: Everything tastes good with a fried egg on top/in it. lol
